Do you support the death penalty? (self.askuk)

Last time I looked a majority of Brits support the death penalty. Which personally I've always found quite disturbing considering all the problems with it.

But 5 mins on any subreddit and you have people frothing at the mouth to hang every criminal.

Which if even more disturbing.

So what do you think?

Definitely not. There are the obvious issues with miscarriages of justice but also I think that an eye for an eye justice is archaic.
